How do women with a history of gestational diabetes mellitus use mHealth during and after pregnancy? Qualitative exploration of women's views and experiences.

Background: Women experiencing gestational diabetes face challenges during and after pregnancy that could be supported with mobile health. Mobile health isn't routinely implemented and little is known regarding its use to aid information seeking, peer support and behaviour change. Understanding women's experiences of mHealth is critical to ensuring acceptance and use, particularly with relation to postpartum and interconception periods, where support is currently lacking.
